Inspiration for Shawn


Genine has been asking me to post this picture for awhile. She figures this is the goal for Shawn. We are thinking we can take a "re-creation" photo to put beside this one next summer. What do you think?

Hah, hah. This was a long time ago, before I discovered nachos.

Meanwhile, I was eating like 5000 calories a day at that time in my life, and still looked like that. Unfortunately, I just continued to eat 5000 calories after I wasn't doing the requisite amount of physical activity.

If I can even see one ab by June, I will be happy. I would be afraid to try to compare to the ones in this pic. I better buy more apples.

Thanks, Genine!

Here is a jab I could live to regret. Who cares about the abs, look at the hair. It only got longer from there, until one day there was none. Re-create that, now we are talking about a transformation.

I think you knew about nachos then, like you said it was much easier to burn off a double serving with a liter coke then it is today.

Who heard of nachos in Warren 20 years ago? That was Mexican food.

And I didn't lose any hair. I cut it all off as a weight loss technique. I lost at least a pound that day. Plus I am much more aero and hydrodynamic now.

All I need to do to get in this kind of shape again is quit my job, get a divorce and stop taking classes. What's the big deal? Unfortunately, fitness isn't even in the top three of my priority list right now.

But I'm doing what I can. And I'm making progress. Slow but sure.

I was thinking a wig of some sort was in order for the recreation.
And if you fall short on the abs. Just buy a compression shirt and find someone that's good with an airbrush and have them paint them in.
Or go to Spencers Gifts and buy the one with the boobs.

We had our version of nachos. At one point we use to dip bread in cheese fondo. Also, buy a block of velvetta and a bag of corn chips.

Yes, I was jabbing you about having no hair, but just so we are clear, my hair brush is getting harder to clean all the time, and I wonder some days why those good strong folicles have moved to my back. I know, Too Much Information.

How is it that you didn't have chicks hanging all over you? Damnit! Even I think you're hot!

Shawn, you plan to get back into shape would never work. If you got the divorce, you would need to work two additional jobs to pay for child support and alimony. Don't tell Tara, but I have looked into it a little bit.

Craig, I don't remember Fondo, but I can tell you I was no stranger to Cheez Whiz. I used to put it on everything.
